U. §. SENATE SELECT COMMITTEE To
STUDY GOVERNMENTAL OPERATIONS WITH
RESPECT TO INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES (SSC)

Reference is made to SSC requests contained in letter
ef Senator Frank Church dated November 7, 1975, for materials
concerning Martin Luther King, Jr.

The purpose of this memorandum is to effect delivery
to the SSC of information and materials in response to requests
contained in the above SSC letter.

The attention of the SSC is invited to YBI memorandum
dated November 11, 1975, which referred to a highly sensitive
eral briefing furnished to Senator Shurch and selected members
of the SSC Staff by FBE personnel on November 5, 1975. This
briefing was intended, in part, to serve in lieu of any
written information in response to SSC requests for comuni-
cations documenting Stanley David Levison as a secret member
of the Communist Party, USA (CPUSA).

Because of SSC insistence in requesting items to
establish factual basis for Levison's secret CPUSA membership,
as set forth in referenced SSC letter, our New York office
was contacted for documents representing original recordings
from Bureau informants concerning Levison. As a result our
New York office provided the material which is now being
delivered and which has served as a basis for statements in
various FBI documents that Levison was a secret member of

the CPUSA.

SENATE SELECT COMMITTER ON INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES

Et is noted that referenced SSC letter requested un-
excised copies of the February 22, and June 12, 1962, communi-
cations from New York which appear to have been the “articulated
predicates for the ‘cominfil* case." The SSC letter did not
identify captions of these communications; nor identify any
specific “cominfil case." Therefore, we were unable to locate
any pertinent documents bearing these dates in our Headquarters:

Files. At a meeting on November 12, 1975, between SSC Staff
Member Michael Epstein and representatives of the Intelligence
Division of the FEI, it was agreed that. the two documents
apparently referred to above are New York airtel dated February 12,
1962, captioned “Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.; SM+C™ and New York
letter dated August 21, 1962, captioned “Communist Infiltration
of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference; IS-c."

New York airtel dated February 12, 1962, is being
delivered with this memorandum among those documents received
from our New York office. Excisions in this document are
fewer than those made in a capy previously provided the SSC. A
copy bearing no or fewer excisions cannot be provided the SSC
for reasons made clear during the oral briefing of Senator
Church and selected SSC Staff members on November 5, 1975.

It is noted that New York letter dated August 21, 1962,
which is being delivered with this memorandum, is not believed
to have been previously provided the SSC.

Dear Mr. Shaheen:

aienr tee itnananeetere ee

I want you to know how much I appreciated the ‘.
opportunity to meet with you and your associates the other
day about the Martin Luther King, Jr. case. It was most

“es helpful to have the benefit of the Bureau’s knowledge con-°
cerning the background of the case, and I can assure you
that we will do everything possible to avoid joepardizing —
any sensitive FBI sources or ongoing operations.

I do want to reiterate our need for the specific
items set forth in earlier document requests which would
presumably establish the factual basis for your conclusion
as of various dates in 1962, 1963 and'1964 that Stanley ©
Levison was a "secret member of the Communist Party, USA."

Of course in the, event that there is no particular document
7 in any of those years wherein Levison was so-identified to

Lo, the FBI, I think it would be helpful for you to let us know
so that we may consider our outstanding requests in that.
context. Finally, of course, we still need wmexcised copies -
‘of the February Z2 and June 12, 1762 communications from
New York which appear to nave been the articulated predicates
for the “cominfil" case. -! — |

Once agath, I want to thank you for your time and
I look forward to hearing from you further on this subject.

Sincerely,

Yon 4/0/64, ae Eon ge made the following observations

with regard to the) CP svatus of STANLEY LEVISON:

LEVISON has been an important Party member for
many years @nd never at any time differed with the Party with
respect to the Party line. His only difference with the
Party has been with respect to the fact that in his opinion
the Party was not sufficiently "militant" in defending
Negro rights, In this respect, he has been to the "left"
. of the Party, LEVISON's differences with the Party are merely
gFle "tactical," He has never criticized the Party, except with
respect to the Party's handling of the Negro question. ‘The
fact that he does not accept domination by the Party with
regard to the MARTIN LUTHER KING movement should not be
construed to mean that he has broken with the Party in all
respects, The Party today is as anxious to reestablish friendly
relations with LEVISON as it was in the past.

(ze should be noted that LEVISON never has been
officially "drummed out" of the Party, nor has anyone ever
criticized him for being opposed to the Party's general

Liineiples. It further should be noted that according to
‘the CP Constitution, it would require formal expulsion of
poe to state that he is officially out of the Party.

LEVISON never has said anything reflecting that
he does not continue to be a CP member, It.should be noted
hat it would be in the interests of the MARTIN LUTHER KING
movement, with which he is associated, if he would publicly
repudiatesthe Party, which he has never done. It should be

LEVISON. LEVISON had always expressed the opinion that
BEN DAVIS was the only CP functionary who had a sufficiently
"militant attitude" as regards CP activities in behalf of
the Negro movement. The fact that DAVIS and LEVISON as yet
have not met should not be construed to mean that LEVISON
has refuséd to confer with DAVIS. As NY 694.8* understands
the situation, DAVIS has been awaiting contact by LEVISON,
and LEVISON similarly has been awaiting contact by DAVIS.
Each of these individuals is sufficiently egotistical to
expect that the other would make the first move in an effort
to establish contact, NY 694-S* believes that probably the
reason why DAVIS and LEVISON have not met is that arrangements
for their meeting were to be made by LEM HARRIS and that
HARRIS has not made the proper efforts to effect a meeting
) between LEVISON and DAVIS.

( we LEVISON, the Party designated BEN DAVIS to contact

NY 694-S* has never obtained any information re-
flecting that LEVISON has changed his thinking with regard to
Marxism. Even though his present estrangement from the Party
might be construed as reflecting he is no longer a CP member,
there is no reason to come to the conclusion that LEVISON is
no longer an ideological Communist.

JACK talked to LEM HARRIS yesterday who said he
contacted STAN LEVENSON by phone and was given a cordial
-hello which was a change from the past when he was cool.

LEM said he had not seen LEVENSON, tried to call him
and would like to see him immediately to which LEVENSON said,
"T would like very much to see you but I don't have the time
now, I'm leaving and packing for a trip. I will be glad to
see you in six weeks,"

LEVENSON impliec. that he was going to Ecuador but

LEM doesn't know why. ‘There was no anger shown, and LEVENSON
willl see LEM when he retu:ns in six weeks.

(on 6/13/63, NY 694.S* furnished the following
informati6n to SA ALEXANDER C. BURLINSON:

On 6/12/63, TEMENT waRRIS,CPUSA Reserve Fund
functionary, told NY 694.8* that in a recent meeting with
STANLEY LEVISON, the latter furnished him the following
information:

The LEVISONS, particularly STANLEY, are still
MARTIN LUTHER KING's "brain trust"~-now more than ever before,
This is so despite the fact that at a meeting of STANLEY
LEVISON, ROY LEVISON, HUNTER PITTS O'DELL, MARTIN LUTHER
KING and "the Attorney General's chief assistant", the
Attorney General's assistant, pointing to the LEVISONS
and HUNTER PITTS OfDELL, stated to MARTIN LUTHER KING,
"These men are Party members; watch out for them,"

MARTIN LUTHER KING did not "bat an eyelash” upon
hearing the Assistant Attorney General's remark, and after
the latter left the meeting, those in the group smiled at each
other. STANIEY LEVISON said to KING, at this:time, "I
congratulate you on the way you acted regarding his warning.
You are a real Marxist~Leninist. This is how a true
Marxist~Leninist acts."

Everything that KING does he first discusses
with STANLEY LEVISON and he accepts LEVISON's advice whole-
» heartedly. KING also wholeheartedly accepts the advice of
; HUNTER PITTS O'DELL as regards matters within the latter's
local jurisdiction,

- : MeRTIN LUTHER KING was asked by @ group of newspaper
revorters whether he takes orders from "the Communists”
and also, whether he took “orders from STANLEY LEVISON, i
KING's response was that he took orders only from God.

By reason of the fact that the LEVISONS feel that
the Party has done little, if anything, to assist the fight

for civil rights for Negroes, and further, since they feel

! that the Party, as a result of this "do nothing" attitude,

| has lost prestige, they will no longer permit the Party

sal to dominate or control thei~ activities in the MARTIN LUTHER

KING movement. They are severing themselves, financially

| and in a disciplinary way, from the Party.\ The LEVISONS \

(and O'DELL) are still Party members,( but do’ not desire to be
openly “linked up" with the Party. “Although they are "dis-
enchanted! with, the Party, they are not quitting the Party.
With respect to the MARTIN LUTHER KING movement, they will
act on their own initiative, and will not accept instructions
from the Party. \

Gam HARRIS then advised that the Party, however,
Still would like to control the MARTIN LUTHER KING movement.
BEN DAVIS has been assigned to be "liaison or intermediary"
With the LEVISONS and HUNTER PITTS O'DELL, Whether or not
the LEVISONS and O?DELL will maintain liaison regarding
matters concerning the MARTIN LUTHER KING movement is a
matter for them to decide. In view of LEVISON's statement - ~
with respect to advising MARTIN LUTHER KING independently
of Party instructions, it would seem that DAVIS may not have
any success in maintaining liaison with the LEVISONS and
HUNTER PITTS O'DELL. The LEVISONS and O'DELL are aware of

£10 the fact that BEN DAVIS has been given this assignment
§ . by the Party.

MARTIN LUTHER KING, according to LEM HARRIS, is
referred to by such top Party functionaries as GUS HALL,
BEN DAVIS, JIM JACKSON and “LAUDE LIGHTFOOT as a "true,
genuine, Marxist-Leninist from the top of his head to the tips
of his toes." In the Party. the report is that MARTIN LUTHER
KING is following a Marxist-Leninist line.

NY 694.S* advised that he asked LEM HARRIS whether
or not, to the latter's knowledge, MARTIN LUTHER KING was
a member of the CPUSA, LEM HARRIS replied that he did not
know. .

When Dr. MARTIN LUTHER KING was invited to address

negro labor leader, who, if he had not been consulted in the

aforesaid convention was a blow to RANDOLPH's prestige.

KING delivered a remarkably effective speech at the
AFL-CIO convention, and, asa result, received invitations
from numerous labor leaders, including "MC DONALD of Steel,"
to address their respective unions. As the outstanding
champion of negro rights in the country, KING is a powerful
political influence, recognized as such by the higher echelons

‘of the Democratic Party. He has access to Attorney General

ROBERT KENNEDY and President KENNEDY, who, politically, need
KING, particularly in the South, where in cities like Atlanta
and New Orleans the negro vote now constitutes the balance of

power, and where KING controls the negro vote.

; JAMES HOFFA, Teamsters Union "boss" appreciates
the political power of KING, particularly the fact that KING
ean influence the 90,000 negro members of the Teamsters
Union. HOFFA invited KING to address the Teamsters Union,
and KING accepted the invitation. Knowing that KING is being
deferred to by Attorney General KENNEDY, and President KENNEDY,
HOFFA requested KING to contact the Attorney General iin an
effort to influence the latter "to lay off" HOFFA, KING was
inclined to do as HOFFA requested, but LEVISON convinced him
that to do so would be politically unwise, inexpedient, and
likely to be a "boomerang," since the Attorney General would
Hori accede to such a request, particularly in the case of

OFFA, :

LEVISON had to steer KING away from another politi-
cally hazardous situation. Some months ago OTTO PREMINGER,
Hollywood movie director, entered into negotiations with a
KING representative for KING to play a part in a picture
which PREMINGER woulddirect, Although PREMINGER's offer was
"tempting," since it meant "fast, easy money" for KING's
organization, LEVISON realized that for KING to accept the
offer would lower the latters prestige. After convincing
KING of this fact, LEVISON personally. telephoned to PREMINGER,
telling him that "the deal was off." )

NY 100-136585

What LEVISON particularly wanted GUS HALL to knew
is that "KING is a wholehearted Marxist, who has studied
it (Marxism), believes in it, and agrees with it, but because
' of his being a minister of religion, does not dare to espouse
it publicly."

GUS HALL, according to HARRIS, was "elated" to
receive LEVISON's report on LUTHER KING,

"Dear Mike:

As_a follow-up to our briefing of Assistant ‘Ditector
Wannall on November 6 concerning our proposed format and
witnesses for public hearings on December 4-5 on the FBI's
use of intelligence informants and sources, we would like

' to make the following requests.

“As discussed in our meeting with Mr. Wannall, we in-

_wite the Bureau to submit a memorandum on its intelligence _

informant and’ source program that could be inserted in
the record of the testimony of Bureau representatives at
the hearing. This memorandum would enable the Bureau to
present to the Select Committee a complete description

‘of its program and to discuss the issues of particular

‘interest to the Committee members. These include, for
example, 1) the size, scope and purpose of the program,
including an assessment of the program's cost and effective-

‘ness, and the distinctions and relationships between the
intelligence informant program and the Bureau's criminal

informant activity; 2) the criteria that determine when

_ an informant may be used in an organization or group; and
_ 3) the program’s command and control system, including the
: limits that are placed on the activities of informants

and the type of information an informant or source is per-

‘mitted to report to his handling agent and the Bureau.

Ae Alge ct aie

In addition, the memorandum would discuss possible leg-
islation in the informant area, such as the imposition

of a warrant requirement or additional administrative re-
view. To permit the Select Committee members to study this
memorandum in advance of the hearing and to discuss it
with FBI representatives during their testimony at the ii
lic hearing, we request that the memorandum be submi

3 you ara aware, a computer ized ADRY listing is pte~

‘pared ‘monthly ab FPRIHO. Phe SI List was prepared in the same
manner and, as with the former 81, when a new monthly ADEX List .
“is prepared copies of the cold list are destroyed inasmuch as they
are outdated and nc longer serve a usaful purpose. As you have
heen previously advised, names appearing on the formor SI and.
the ADEX have been printed on § H 8 cards with a single name ..
printed on gach card. Background information, fila numbers, and
type of aetivit ty in whioh the individual is engaged are also

placed’on these cards. As you are.awara, approximately 15,088 of.

‘these cards, all outdated, have been lecated ad FSTHQ. these

cards include some which contain the identity of individuals who

vere maintained oa the Priority III level of the former SI and

~ all ADEA cards deleted or cancelled since its inception.

niring the initial period of es stablishing ‘the ADEX, in

order te obviate the nead fox egonducting massive file reviews,

the ADEX censisted primarily of the identity of those individuals
who had been maintained on the former: SI. Although these nawaes

were originaliy placed in this.manner on the new ADEX, ag cases

name was deleted. As previously indicated, during 1972 the ADR
was evaluated and revised. Following this revieion, the number
of individuals who wero included on the ADEX began to decline
and thus the high numbar of cancelled cards, In accordance with
Bureau policy, which was inetituted during the SI program, these
cancelled cards ate maintained at FPRINO for a period of three
yoars and there is no way to reconstuct a formor SI or ADEX list
for a particular timo period by roviewing these cancelled cards,
These cards, however, will reflect the identity of those in-
dividuals whe have been placed on the SI and the ADEX for the
period for which these cards were maintained.

Per your request, these outdated SI and ADEX ecards
are available for review by appropriate SSC representives
at FBIHQ. In this regard, SSC Staff Members Nartha Talley and
Jobn ©, DLLiZE have had access to these cards on October 30,
1975, and Novembor 7, 1975, respectively.

During Mr. Blliff's review of these cards, the names
Shelley Blum, Emanuel dames Brisker, Jr., and Gregory Allan
Calvert were selected by Mr. ELIIL£ in connection with request
number two of your October 28, 1975, letter. Doocumonts re-
guested rogarding these individuals are enclosed.

A veview of pertinent files at FBIHQ regarding the SI
and the RE indicontes there ara no other versions of the former
SI ar RI at FRIHO. Contact was also made with knowledgeable
individvals of our New York City Field Office and it was doter-
mined these programs had boon handled in accordance with thon
existing FBIHQ policy and no other versionsof these programs
wore compiled by that office.

Materials requested for delivery under item number
four of your Cctobor 28, 1975, lecter are enclosed. In this re-
gard, it is neted the correct FBINQ fila number for the Emma
Lararaus Federation of Jewish Women's Clubs is 100-400394 and
the correct file numbor for the fille regarding Communist Infil-
tration of the National Association for the Advancement of
Colored People is 61-3176. In order to be responsive to your
roquest, pertinent documents of the typo desired are being fur-
nishod vegarding these organizations from these files.

RE: VISITS OF SSC STAFF
MEMBERS TO FBY
LEGAL ATTACHES

Department of State advised that the primary objective of
the visitors was to discuss with the Ambassador and
members of his staff the relationships and exercise of
authority by the Ambassador of the intelligence activities
in the field. The Department of State further advised that
operational details, sources and methods were not construed
to be logitimate avenues of inquiry by the SSC Staff
Members.

Legat, Brasilia, was interviewed on September 22,
1975, by Messrs. Aaron and Truchart, with Aaron being
dominant in the interviewing process. ‘The interview was
dirccted mainly toward attempts to elicit examples whereby
Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) had withheld dissemination
of information of intcrest to other agencies. Inquirics
were made concerning CIA activities inside and outside the
Embassy. Specific questions were placed with Legat to
ascertain if the FBI was involved in Soviet Embassy
*walk-ins" as well as recruitment of double agents and CYA-
oriented operations. Discussion concerning Legat's role
and functions in Brasilia appeared to be routine, with few,
if any, pointed questions directed at FBI operations
overseas, The subject of two paid confidential sources in
Brasilia was briefly discussed and both SSC investigators
appeared understanding and in agreement with the necessity
of each confidential source to serve FBI's and U. Ss.
Government's best interests in Brazil. The question
seemingly bearing the most weight during the interview
concerned possible unauthorized activities of CIA and its
lack of cooperation and coordination with FBI and the
Defense Attache's Office. The duration of the intervicw
was approximately forty-five minutes.(s)

Legat, Buenos Aires, was interviewed by the two
SSC Staff Members on September 26, 1975. Again Aaron
played the dominant role during interview. He commenced

the interview by stating that the operations of Legats,
Brasilia, and Buenos Aires, were not the type of Legat
operations he desircd ta review, indicating that
Mexico City Logat's operations were more of the type of
interest to them. Aaron asked pointed questions
concerning the mechanics of Legat veporting on
intelligenee information developed locally to FBIE and
the local coordinztion of this inforuation with the
Bubassy components. Aaron requested the Legat provide
him with the general nature of intelligences developad
and reported by the Legat to the Embassy and FBIHQ. He
was told that generally international and local terrorism
were the prime tapics of Legat reporting. Induiry was
aiso made into the reasan for FBI exnansion of forcign
Viaison activities in 1970. We was toid that tho Legat
was not personally aware of any special reason other than
that the FGI liaison operations required additional
personnel agli Aaron was referred to FIG for any
additional information in thia regard. /Tegat was asked
whether the CIA Station had ever requested Legat to secre
data from FGI computer banks on Argentine residents of
CTA interest who had previously resided in the U. 8.
Legat's reply was in the negative. Other questions mainiy
dealt with coonceation and coordination activities between
the PDI and tho CIA at the Mmbassy.| Yaquiry was also tnde ('s,
into the relationship of the Drue“Taforcement Agency and »)
FGI overseas. The interview lasted approximately thirty-
five minutes.

Upon arrival in Buenos Aircs, Mr. Agron was
suffering from an intestinal problem and remained in his
Ructos Aircs hotel on Scptember 25, 1975. The Charge rn

Memorandum advises concerning proposed SSC
hearing on FBI foreign counterintelligence (CI) matters;

On 10/30/75 Mr, John E1liff, SSC Staff Member,
met with Assistant Director W. R. Wannall, Intelligence
Division (INTD), Also present were Section Chiefs W. A,
Branigan (CI~1) and W. 0, Cregar (CI-2) and Acting Section
Chief F. J. Cassidy (IS-3) and Unit Chief E. W, Larson,
Training Unit (IS-3), Mr. Elliff advised that the Committee
proposed to have an executive session tentatively scheduled
for the morning of Friday, 11/14/75, witichdwouldndeal with
foreign CI operations, In addition to representatives from
the FBI they envisioned aiso having present representatives
from CIA and the United States military intelligence services,
He stated that the session would be scheduled for approximately
2 and oneshalf hours,

During the conference the following three themes
were outiined by Mr. Elliff as the probable areas of
discussion:

1, Changes in CI operations during recent years

Items discussed as probably worthy of attention
were physical surveillances, the walk-in operations, NL
defection (recruitment-in-place), CI training programs,

Also suggested as a prime topic was the future projections
concerning administration of foreign CI operations in aD gree the

United States, i.e., new division for CI work within — iste

separate CI service; or other modifications,

Memorandum to Mr. W. R. Wannall
Re: U, 8S. Senate Select Committee
on Intelligence Activities (SSC)

2.  Counter~subversion

In this category Mr, E1liff indicated a particular
interest in foreign influence in domestic groups and the
assessment of danger/risk in investigations undertaken to
detect such influence, He brought up the disclosures of
Surveillances by CIA of Americans abroad at the request of
the FBI, He aiso indicated an interest in borderline cases,
such as those in which domestic counter-subversion
investigations develop a CI aspect, and was particularly
interested in the policies and coordinating mechanisms
affecting such instances,

3, Positive intelligence collection

In this category Mr, E11liff was interested in
the responsibility for collection of positive intelligence
within the United States and the apparent gap which existed
in this field, He was also interested in Situations under
which the FBI might target friendly foreign intelligence
services in the United States for CI attention,

Considerable discussion was held during the
conference during which INTD representatives set forth the
FBI's position and experience in the many areas noted,
They are being set forth here to illustrate the probable
scope and nature of the executive session which is being
planned, Further discussions will be held with the SSC
staff to clarify these matters and a firmer agenda for the
proposed 11/14/75 hearing will be developed,

With respect to the proposed plan. to include
representatives of CIA and the military intelligence services
along with the FBI in the proposed séssion of 2 and one
half hours, it was pointed out to Mr, E11liff that this would
not appear to be a very productive procedure, The CI
perspectives and responsibilities of CIA and the military
services are much more narrow and generally in a completely

different context than the CI perspectives and responsibilities

of the FBI, These differences, particularly in the short

time allotted, appear to represent a disadvantage to all
parties concerned, including the Committee, It was pointed
out that the FBI, in particular, would have considerable
difficulty in presenting a comprehensive and valid picture
of its own CI operations under the conditions imposed by
such a SesSion, Mr, Elliff, after considering these
objections, stated that he could understand the FBI
position but was somewhat doubtful considering the pressures
under which the Committee was operating that he would be
able to alter this situation,

Enclosed is a self-explanatory letter from the a
Attorney General dated 1/12/76. we

Joseph Kraft, the subject of the inquiry, is the
well-known newspaper columnist and a Washington, D. C, resident.
During the past year, information contained in FBI Headquarters ,”
files relating to Kraft has been furnished to the U. S.

Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Activities (SSC)
pursuant to SSC requests. Kraft and his attorneys have re-
viewed the material furnished to the SSC regarding him in
accordance with an agreement between Kraft and the Attorney
General, referred to in paragraph one of the enclosure. As
noted in the enclosure, Kraft, as a result of a review of
information regarding the burglary of his residence on 9/3/69,
raised certain questions,

WFO should furnish FBIHQ with Xeroxes of all serials
in ‘its files which relate to the 9/3/69 burglary except. WFO

In addition to the reviow of all files pertinent to
this inquiry, WFO should review the newspaper morgues of daily
newspapers published in Washington, D. C., at such time for
articles concerning the burglary and which way shed some
additional light on this mertisrs

This matter must be given expeditious atkention
and results submitted by airtel to reach Bureau by

NOTE:

; Bureau. memorandum dated July 23, 1973, referred

sets forth the information that Kraft advised WFO on
9/4/69 of the burglary of his residence 9/3/69. Kraft
now has no recollection of having spoken to the FBI
about the burglary. Pertinent PBIHO main case files
on Kraft (62-115682, 65-75629, 87~-107157 and 105~68548)
were reviewed by Supervisor T. E. Burns in connection
with this inquiry. Such review failed to develop
required information. Review by WFO as directed within
should develop appropriate information necessary to

Among the documents from Federal Bureau of Investigation

October 7, 1975, there was a mémorandum dated July 18, 1973 res

When Mr. Kraft and his attorneys reviewed the July 18, 1973,
document they raised a question about a reference on page two of —
the document which stated:

"On the morning of September 4, 1969,
the Metropolitan Police Department was advised
by the Washington National Airport Police that
some silverware had been found near one of the
entrances to the terminal at the Washington
National Airport. The silverware was recovered
by the Metropolitan Police Department and
processed for latent fingerprints without
success and the items were returned to Mrs,
Kraft upon her identification of the silverware.

i No suspects were developed by either the FBI
or the Metropolitan Police Department in the
investigation of the matter."

Mr. Kraft does not recall having spoken to the FBI about the
burglary. Documents provided more recently to Mr. Kraft pursuant
to the August 5, 1975, agreement do not shed any light on this
question.

The incident is curious in that the only reference to it comes
in the memorandum of July 18, 1973, discussing a press report about
the activities of John D. Erlichman. Could you have someone look
into this matter for me? The obvious questions are: What other
documents in FBI files say about the September 3, 1969, burglary?
What files of the Bureau or its Washington field office indicate
about how the conversation about the burglary took place?

As the Bureau is aware, I am gravely concerned ovez
the potential for serious violence occurring in Chicago during

the period of the Democratic Convention, which commences
August 26, 1868 and the days immediately preceding this
convention, Had the convention occurred within 30 days after
the President made his announcement that he was not going to
run for reelection and after the Viet Nam peace talks started
in Paris, I feel that we might not have had serious violence
as these two occurrences took much of the steam out of many of
the organizations comprising the "New Left" Their direction
at that time was primarily against Pr -esident JOHNSON and
against Viet Nam and much of the steam went out of their
‘programs following these two announcements,

It is our observation, however, that these "New Left"
organizations have now had time to redirect their programs .
and are now concentrating primarily on demonstrations and
: activities against Vice President HUMPHREY, characterized
S by them as the "Dump Humphrey Campaign". The fact that the
<> lwar still continues in Viet Nam, has again given emphasis
7 to the organizations which exist on the basic theme of anti-
& , Viet Nam, I am thinking particularly of such organizations

CG 100--44963

For the Bureau's information, Sgt. JOSEPH GRUBISIC,
Intelligence Section, Chicago PD, advised previously that he
had learned from DAVID STAHL of the Mayor's Office, Chicago,
that they had received a telephone call, a couple of days ago,
from one WES POMEROY of the U.S. Attorney General's Office,
to the effect that the Attorney General wanted the Chicago
city officials to give every consideration to the granting
of the permits requested by the Yippies.

Sgt. GRUBISIC was unable to comment on the feeling
of the city administraticn to this request but was of the
opinion that such permits would not be granted as requested.
Sgt. GRUBISIC based his opinion on the fact that four repre-
sentatives of the Yippies, from New York City, had gone to
the office of the Deputy Superintendent of the Chicago PD and
had requested immunity from arrest for all Yippies during the
convention for crimes around the possession of narcotics. The
Yippies stated that any arrest would cause the Yippie community
to cause large scale riots, and the blame of any riots resulting
from such arrests would fall on the Chicago Pp.

These representatives of the Yippies were advised
in no uncertain terms that the laws of the City of Chicago
would be strictiy enforced fairly on all persons and that no

_ one would be granted any immunity during this period,

The Bureau's attmtion is invited to the August 9,
1968, issue of the "Daily World," daily publication of the
Communist Party, USA (CP), wherein an article appeared on page
one captioned "Rallies Will Ring Demo Convention" written by
CARYL /DAVIAU, current memberi, CP of Illinois, in which the
reporter indicates that the INational Mobilization Committee ;
to By the War in Vietnam,which is working around the clock to
mobilize demonstrations against the convention,has petitioned
the Justice Department to investigate the Chicago Police to
determine if there is any conspiracy to deprive "us" of our
full civil liberties...

Chicago will continue to.follow these matters
closely and immediately advise the Bureau, and continue to
disseminate all information of intelligence collected to
interested agencies.

No recommendation is being made nor is Chicago
involving itself in any plans affecting the issuance of the
abovementioned park permit. —_

As the Bureau is aware, Chicago is in receipt of
| information from confidential scirces indicating a potential
| . for demonstration arising out of the "New Left" calling for
direct confrontation with the Chicago Police Department as a
diversionary tactic for a "crash-in" at the convention site.
sources have also reported independent action on the part of
individuals to cause some form of "sabotage" activity inside
the convention itself. Information received from confidential
, informants in other divisions indicates attempts on the part
\ of dissident young people not organizationally affiliated with
the "New Left", to hire 50 buses out of New York to bring
demonstrators to Chicago and a caravan of militant Latin
4mcricans to come from the Miami, Florida area to Chicago for
, the specific purpose of disrupting the Democratic National
Convention,

‘

The Chicago area activists in the Youth International
Party are currently planning a "Festival of Lights" in one of
[ the parks on Chicago's lakefront during the period of the
Democratic National Convention. This “Festivai of Lights"
| characterized by Chicago area Yippie leadership as being peaceful
co Show America thut there is an alternative to the "festival
| of death", or the Democratic National Convention. However,

; sources report that there are elements within the Youth Inter-
national Party which are calling for direct confrontation with
the Chicago Police Department during the "Festival of Lights".

There is a very definite indication that more and
more plans are being made by these groups to cause violence and
* +: trouble and undoubtedly this will increase even more as we
approach the time of the convention. I strongly feel that we
' must use every possible means at our command to insure that
' the Director, the President of the United States and other pertinent
officials are furnished every possible piece of- intelligence
information which we can gather from any source,

I am specifically asking for the services of two
Special Agents who proved during their assignment, in Chicago that
they are expecially well qualified to handle informants and make
contacts in the "New Left" area. .They proved during their
assignments in Chicago that they have the knowhow, the interest,
the dedication and the personality to be highly successful in

after discussion withthe Department. It is not desired to make
a large payment at this time which could be construed as a payment

debts showing their basis, when contracted and schedule of

p
&

$16. 00 per day subsistentein licu of expenses This figure 4
was initially decided upon after discussion with the Departient,
and with the Department's approval, as it was recognized that
the informant hac to be removed from the Birmingham area for
his protection and safety. The Department pointed out that
it would not be desirable to make any lump sum or large
- payment .to the informant so long as he might be called upon
to testify, as any such large payments might be construed
in court as a payment for his testimory, whereas payment
oz his living expenses can readily be justified as a necessity,
€
cH
In tne trial of subject Collie Leroy _ Wilkins which
began 53-65 and resulted in a hung jury, the Bureau was called
upon to produce a record of payments to the informant. In a
future trial, it is reasonable to expect that we will again be
called upon to produce such a record, The payment of Rowe's
}} debts at this time amounting to over two thousand dollars
?

would appear in this record of payments to Rowe, and we
certainly could not agree to pay such a large amount at this

With regard to the debts themselves, it would not
appear from information furnished by Birmingham that they are
all due and payable immediately, as the larger debts to the
two banks would probably be payable in monthiy installments.
We could, with Department's approval, agree to payment of
his smaller debts and monthly installments on these larger

debts as they come due,

RECOMMENDATION

. In view of the above, it is recommended that
Birmingham be instructed to submit a detailed accounting of
Rowe's debts showing their. basis, when they were contracted,

_due dates and a full breakdown of any instaliment contracts
showing detailed schedule of payments. Upon receipt of this
information, the matter will be discussed with the Department
and their views as to whether or not payment of these debts ;
at this time would be judicious, will be obtained. syed

MR. DOAR POINTED OUT TO ROWE THAT THE CONDITIONS
PREVIOUSLY OUTLINED BY ROWE WERE NOT CONSIDERED UNREASONABLE,
ALSO INDICATED THAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT DID NOT CONSIDER
ROWE'S INABILITY TO IDENTIFY LEROY MOTON AS THE OCCUPANT
OF THE CAR WITH MRS. LIUZZO AS BEING HARMFUL TO THE
GOVERNMENT'S CASE; IF ROWE FELT MOTON WAS NOT THE NEGRO
OCCUPANT, HE SHOULD SO TESTIFY. | ,
MR. DOAR ADVISED ROWE THAT THE GOVERNMENT COULD NOT ~
IN GOOD CONSCIENCE GIVE HIM AN AGREEMENT IN WRITING
WHEREBY HE WOULD BE ASSURED THAT HE WOULD NOT 8E REQUIRED
TO TESTIFY IN ANY FUTURE PROCEEDINGS REGARDLESS OF’ THE
OUTCOME OF THE TRIAL TO GOMMENCE NOVEMBER 29. MR. DOAR
POINTED OUT THAT SUCH AN AGREEMENTS IF GIVEN, WOULD Be
OF NO VALUE TO ROWE AS IT WOULD BE A WORTHLESS COMMITMENT
RELATING TO EVENTS WHICH MIGHT OCCUR IN THE FUTURE AND
NOT UNDER THE CONTROL OF PRESENT GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS.

Director Sec’y

On 11/21/75, Inspector John B. Hotis met with Doug
Marvin, Counselor to the Attorney General; Mark Wolf, Special
Assistant to the Attorney General, and Michael E. Shaheen, Jr.,
Special Counsel for Intelligence Coordinatig concerning
Mr. Levi's forthcoming appearance before thé Senate Select
Committee on intelligence Activities. The Attorney General
Will have a prepared statement which will probably deal with |
the future relationship between the Bureau and the Department .
and the kinds of contacts. needed to prevent abuse of authority.
Mr. Marvin asked that the Bureau provide the following materials,
which will be used in the preparation of a briefing book for

Mr. Levi's testimony: Ae
° Aes
eau

(1) A general synopsis of major areas of the B s°
activities. that have been investigated by. the Senate and House
Select Committees. Mr. Marvin gave as examples, the "Official
and Confidential" files, COINTELPRO, use of informants, and in-
terception of mails. He said the purpose is to identify those
. topics which have been of primary concern to the Committees.
Mr. Marvin asked that -the synopses. contain a brief statement of
. the Bureau's position on each ‘of the subje HES
| WALLS Are S“b Pi ae swan
(2). A general stitement consenting the érganizational
structure and functions of the FBI, with particular emphasis on
the responsibilities of the Inspection Division. This ‘should
include a description of how complaints are received, the review
process, and any recent changes iin the operations of that Division.
In addition, the Attorney General wants a write-up of all investi-
gations of alleged misconduct presently being. conducted by the
“Bureau. He is particularly concerned about any incidents. that
may have occurred during Mr. Levi's tenure as Attorney general,
such ‘as. those ‘in Richmond, Detroit, and Houston. on

Legal Counsel to Mr. Adams —
RE:.. TESTIMONY. BY. THE ATTORNEY GENERAL BEFORE ‘THE.
SENATE SELECT COMMITTER ON INTELLIGENCE ACTIVITIES.

(3).. A history of Congressional oversight of the Bureau.
Mr. Marvin asked that we identify. those Subcommittees of Congress -
which have exercised some oversight responsibilities. over. the
. Bureau. In particular, he asked that we review appropriations
. testimony going back ‘to 1955 to determine whether we discussed
. topics which are presently of concern to the Select Committees.
. This will be very useful in demonstrating Congressional aware-
. ness of these matters:' He also asked that we ‘furnish ‘a statement :
of the Director's. position concerning Congressional oversight :
which he has: previously. expressed in speeches or testimony
before Congress.

(4) .A list of major investigative techniques. employed
by. the Bureau, specifying in each case whether we seek Depart-—
mental approval. . The more obvious. examples are electronic
surveillance, use of body recorders, pen registers, informants,
and photographic surveillances.

(5) A list of any formal or informal proposals which ‘have .

been made ‘concerning organizational. changes of the FBI. Examples -
are ‘the ‘creation of an inspector General's Office in the Depart-
ment or. elsewhere having review authority over the FBI, transfer
of counterintelligence functions to. another agency or. the creation
. of a separate Division within the Bureaw for that function, trans-
- fex of drug enforcement responsibilities. to the Bureau, and the
proposed statutory limitation on the term of the office for the
Director.

It should be noted that several position papers concern-
ing such topics were prepared at the request of former. Acting
Director L. Patrick Gray which might be useful in responding to.
this request..

Although no date has been set for the Attorney General's -
. testimony, it is expected that he will testify after Mr. Kelley's -

appearance on 12/9/75. In view of the ‘limited time available,

Mr. Marvin asked that we expedite ‘the ‘preparation of these
materials and: furnish ‘them to his office as soon as. ‘they are
, completed. It is requested that these materials be submitted
. to the Office of Congressional Affairs, when completed, but no
later than cob,. Friday, AL/28/75; . They should be submitted in
insert form suitable ‘for inclusion in a letterhead memorandum.

This will confirm our conversation on
November 26, 1975, wherein you authorized the Bureau
to use a videotape recording of your “Live" telecast
concerning the appearance of Deputy Associate Director
James B. Adams before the Church Committee. You
indicated that this was authorized for the exclusive
viewing by FBI personnel.

This is to advise you that the videotape
of Mr. Adams' testimony is being restricted solely
to FBI personnel, We certainly appreciate your
consideration in this regard. Thank you for this
authority.

Dear Mike: . _ - oe, t
As.a follow-up to our briefing of Assistant Director

Wannall on November 6 concerning our proposed format and

witnesses for public hearings on December 4-5 on the FBI's

use of intelligence informants and sources, we would like
to make the following requests.

As discussed in our mee with Mr. Wannall, we in-

i
i

i

t

vite the Bureau to submit a memorandum on its intelligence _ :
informant and source program that could be inserted in i
the record of the testimony of Bureau representatives at i
the hearing. This memorandum would enable the Bureau to- t
present to the Select Committee a complete description i
of its program and to discuss the issues of particular i
'

interest to the Committee members. These include, for
“example, 1} the size, scope and purpose ef the program,
including an assessment of the pregram's cost and effective-
» mess, and the distinctions and relationships between the

intelligence informant program and the Bureau's criminal
informant activity; 2) the criteria that determine when
an informant may be used in an organization or group; and
3) the program's command and control system, including the
. limits that are placed on the activities of informants

and the type of information an informant or source is per-

mitted to report to his handling agent and the Bureau.

In addition, the memorandum would discuss possible leg-

islation in the informant area, such as the imposition

of a warrant requirement or additional administrative re-

view. To permit the Select Committee members to study this ;
memorandum in advance of the hearing and to discuss it -
with FBI representatives during their testimony at the pub

lic hearing, we request, that he menorandum be submitted
by November 24,

On 11/25/75, John T. BlLiff, Task Force Director of
the Domestic Intelligence Task Force for the Senate Select Com-
mittee, requested the Bureau designate a witness_to appear in
executive session before thé Séndte Seles Committee. on.12/3. or

: 4_in_the afternoon to discuss” ‘counterintelligence investi-

| \gations by. the Bureau’ ELLiff stated because of Chairman Frank

| Church's interest in a study as. to whether counterintelligence
investigations should be taken out of the FBI and placed in
another agency or a separate component of the Justice Department,

. this particular topic would be the main focal point of the hear-
ing. E1if£ stated that the questions asked of the Bureau's
witness would deal primarily with the feasibility of removal of
counterintelligence out of the FBI including problems of a
logistical and practical nature resulting from such a change.
Elliff asked that he be advised as to the identity of the Bureau
witness as soon as possible.

Inasmuch as the aforementioned topic is_a question of _
policy». the Director may desire to appear or designate a_ Bureau
wLtness. tS"appear betore thé Colimtttee in this “matter... Michael E.
‘Sheen, ure, Special Counsel for Intelligence Coordination in the
Department, is aware of the aforementioned testimony and the pos-

| sibility. exists that the Department may make a decision with
regards. to the Bureau's providing a witness concerning this

John T. EL1iff£, Domestic Task Force Director of tHe" %’—
Senate Select Committee, advised at 9:15 a.m. on 12/3/75 that
the following is a statement to be read by Senator Frank ‘Uae

of that Committee on 12/3/75. lpg, 4
¥

Attorney General Kennedy authorized wiretaps in
1962 on New York Times reporter Hanson Baldwin and his
secretary and that lasted for about one month. In addition lee
to the wiretap on New York Times reporter Hanson Baldwin in ;
1962, the Committee has received materials from the FBI re-
flecting authorization by Attorney General Kennedy of a }
wiretap on a reporter for Newsweek Magazine in 1961 during
the investigation of another leak of classified information.
Further materials reflected authorization by Attorney General
Nicholas Katzenbach for a wiretap on the editor of an anti-
Communist newsletter in 1965, also during the investigation
of a leak of classified information. The Committee has received
materials from the FBI reflecting authorization by Attorney
General Robert F. Kennedy of wiretaps on at least six American
citizens, including three Executive Branch officials, a Con-
gressional Staff Member, and two registered lobbying agents

for foreign interests. The materials also reflect that these

wiretaps relate to an investigation of agents by foreign in-
terests. to influence United States economic policies. ;
ELLi£E was advised by SA Paul V. Daly of this pivisidn
that an impression would be created by the aforementioned statement
that this Bureau may have conducted an electronic surveillance on
Capitol Hill and that this, of course, was inaccurate. The elec-
tronic surveillance concerning the Congressional Staff Member was
not located on Congressional property. El1liff agreed with this
observation and indicated that he would check the material to
insure the electronic surveillance in questor-wastot on Con-
gressional property and as agreed, make a change in e afore-
